The document proposes the creation of a working group to
investigate the possibility of the Russian company producing undercarriage legs
and control systems for the global leader in passenger aircraft manufacturing.

UTC Aerospace Systems — a division of United Technologies Corporation and Boeing’s
current landing gear integrator — has signed the memorandum as a third party.

Maxim Kuzyuk, the general director of Aviation
Equipment,emphasized: “This document is an important step for us from the point
of view of developing cooperation with leading aviation equipment manufacturers
and our plans to actively enter the global market.”

This memorandum does not herald the
first time that Aviation Equipment has cooperated with Boeing. In October 2012,
the company reached an agreement with the American company for assistance in
establishing a service center in Russia, for the distribution of spare parts
for aircraft. Total capital investment in this project will be 1,400,000,000 rubles
($42 billion) by 2015.
